Sen. [[Elizabeth Warren]] joined in the criticism of foreign corporations who donated cash to the Clinton Foundation, criticizing "a French company", the Veolia Group, "that sued Egypt after Egypt raised its minimum wage.” Veolia contributed between $50,001 and $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation. Warren criticized Philip Morris, part of the Altria group—another Clinton Foundation donor. And “a Swedish company", Vattenfall, a state-owned Swedish utility. The Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency contributed between $1 million and $10 million to the Clinton Health Access Initiative.<ref>http://freebeacon.com/politics/elizabeth-warren-targets-clinton-foundation-donors/ </ref>
